The Bullitts, also known as Jeymes Samuel, confirmed Jay-Z’s involvement in the score of Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby yesterday in a tweet.

Jay-Z and myself have been working tirelessly on the score for the upcoming #CLASSIC The Great Gatsby! It is too DOPE for words!

Jay-Z’s involvement has been rumored for a while, which was fueled by the repeated use of Jay-Z and Kanye West’s “No Church in the Wild” in the film’s trailers. The film—which stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Carey Mulligan and Tobey Maguire—is set to open on May 10, and you can see the latest trailer below.
